Police probe ringside scuffle as Gallen allays health concerns

Résumé détaillé

Paul Gallen has returned home after being rushed to hospital following his devastating knockout loss to Nelson Asofa-Solomona.

Police are investigating a wild post-fight altercation involving former NRL star Nelson Asofa-Solomona and a spectator, as Paul Gallen reassured everyone he was “safe and sound” following his sickening knockout defeat in the NSW government-sponsored bout.

On Saturday, Gallen declared “you live by the sword, you die by the sword” after Asofa-Solomona landed a series of unanswered right hands – including at least one that connected after he appeared knocked out and on the ropes – that left him on the canvas for several minutes.

The former NSW skipper eventually recovered sufficiently to congratulate Asofa-Solomona on the victory, but was rushed to hospital on Friday night.

There were wild scenes immediately after the fight after the former Melbourne Storm forward leapt out of the ring to confront a spectator.
